The French eat dogs ?

Many Americans appreciate French food as the highest culinary standard. We're brought up with a few fancy French words to describe high-class food. If you dream of romantic meals and nice restaurants, it's almost inevitably French.

However, most Americans are not familiar with some of the lesser-known ingredients on French menus. There are some uncommon birds, fluffy rodents, offal (organ) meats, and according to this report, dog!

Quote: [Animal rights advocate, Bridgette Bardot, said, Koreans who eat dog meat are barbarians' over the phone during talks with MBC radio host on December 3rd, 2001. Seok-Hee Shon asked, "Do you know the fact that there are French who eat dog meat?" And she said, "Absolutely not." "And she said further, "I can't talk any longer with Koreans who lie," and she hung up the phone.]

Well, Bridgette dear, I don't like Koreans who lie either, nor French who hang up the phone when faced with facts like that. You wimp.

Hoaxes, Pranks, Rumors, Myths: The Fetus Feast

There's a lot of junk on the internet. Yeah, hahh, you're reading this site, for example.

Seriously, Weirdmeat.com does not publish hoaxes, pranks, rumors, or myths. Our weird meat escapades are entirely first-hand experiences.

Next time you get a junk email about some shocking horrid thing, check if it's an urban legend or hoax. There's many websites devoted to stopping these pranks. One popular urban legend going around is that there's some unscrupulous people -- usually in Asian countries -- who chow down on baby fetuses. Now that's a nasty rumor.

Check out the "Fetus Feast"

Now for a joke...
If an alien from outer space landed in China... In Beijing they would put it in a public museum, in Shanghai they would create a theme park around it and sell tickets, in Guangzhou they'd eat it!
